Текст песни Юлий Ким - Там, возле рек вавилонских...

There, near the rivers of Babylon,
As we sat and wept.
To us came to laugh:
"As you sit and weep?
What's po`te and dancing? "
ABOUT! ABOUT! ABOUT!

Yerushalayim, my heart!
What I sing away from you?
What I see in the distance from you
Eyes full of tears?

There, near the rivers of Babylon,
No us peace and joy.
There, under a weeping willow,
Harp their break in we
Strings its tattered us. -
ABOUT! ABOUT! ABOUT!

Yerushalayim, my heart!
What I sing away from you?
What I see in the distance from you
Eyes full of tears?

There, near the rivers of Babylon,
Alive I'm the only memory.
Let suffocate and go blind,
If ever forget
Stones in flames,
White thy stones.

Yerushalayim, my heart!
What I sing away from you?
What I see in the distance from you
Eyes full of tears? ..
